@ 25

Uh.. how can you compare R5’s from a group like PUKKA to Axxo who only does DVDRips. PUKKA does a fine job on their dvdrips, occasionally a slip up will happen and they or someone else will repack, but for the most part they’re quality. Oh, also to inform you, Diamond doesn’t do telesync releases. Only quality xvid DVDRips. Only 5 movies out of MANY releases since 2006 have been nuked and am sure at least 2 of those were insignificant nukes. Isn’t shit. Diamond owns.

I agree..DiAMOND is better than aXXo !
Infact i find FXG rips better than aXXo…the only thing with aXXo torrents are that they are better seeded even for an old release..look for a year old aXXo release and u will still see a descent d/l rate !
For new ones I will still go for a well seeded scener like pukka or diamnond !

Devise…. now that’s a quality p2p group

I have no idea if aXXo “steals” scene rips – actually I highly doubt he re-encodes XviDs as posted above because the quality loss doesn’t appear to be there.

He may well encode from scene DVD-Rs, in which case there is a small quality loss in many cases – because most DVD movies are released as DVD9 and the main title usually goes over both layers. The scene makes most DVD-R releases as DVD5 and hence re-encodes MPEG2 with some loss of quality.

If aXXo (or anyone) encodes these to MPEG4 (Xvid) then the quality will not be as good as someone encoding from a retail DVD to Xvid because there has been an extra lossy encoding step.

The reason I say to avoid aXXo is it’s not scene. The scene has standards to ensure quality and if releases don’t pass these standards then they’re nuked.

I’ve never seen a 2 CD aXXo release – doesn’t mean they aren’t out there mind you, I don’t get files from places where aXXo releases are to be found anymore. Many DVDs require a 1.4GB release to keep a good level of quality up according to scene standards.

Not all P2P groups are crap – Devise, GrandDK are two that aren’t – however aXXo, imo isn’t up to standards at all. And generally I stick to scene content because it has a quality standard that any random releaser does not have, including proper sources, preperation (cropping etc.), encoder settings and a warranty of quality of sorts (IE. nukinh of bad releases).

aXXo always had good quality, not the same can be said for Diamond with his telesync BS, or Pukka with their R5 bad sound & missing minutes crap. Another reason why aXXo is a winner is because he leaves the endcredits in there.

That being said I think mpaa assholes have taken over this thread.

Lol thats easy. Search ‘W’ and the year it was made… Ie ‘W 2008′. If that don’t work, add a ‘dvd’ to the search.

i recommend sexdrive , really funny movie. i know some arent gonna agree but i like axxo cause of the 700mb file. i see the difference in quality but don’t care enough to wait for or download the better quality movie/better scene release. also i just see who has the movie and how many seeds there are wich also make me decide.

How the hell do you search for “W”????

Tip #234 for Movie Makers on how to make your movie pirate-proof:

Restrict the title to just 1 letter.

Axxo is fucking garbage. Stay with quality scene groups for DVD Rips such as Diamond, PUKKA, Vomit, groups like those. They are normally higher resolution / higher bitrate and have a better done encoding job to xvid. I’ve compared Axxo vs Diamond many times and Diamond always wins.

It’s like people banging on about how great ipods are, yet you can get an equally great if not better mp3 player for half the price. Axxo’s rips are decent and that is all. You can find much better rips around the 700mb size if you look around (NewArtRiot is a group I recommend).

There are just to many newbies who listen to all that axxo hype rather than taking time to actually find a quality rip.
